NTP-D114 Power Down the Node

For software steps, Provisioning level or higher is required. For hardware steps, any level is allowed.

Warning! Do not reach into a vacant slot or chassis while you install or remove a module or a fan. Exposed circuitry could constitute an energy hazard. Statement 206

Caution! The following procedure is designed to minimize traffic outages when powering down nodes, but traffic will be lost if you delete and recreate circuits that passed through a working node.

Note: Always use the supplied ESD wristband when working with the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH. Plug the wristband into the ESD jack located on the fan-tray assembly or on the lower right outside edge of the shelf assembly. To access the ESD plug on the shelf assembly, open the front door of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH. The front door is grounded to prevent electrical shock.

Identify the node that you want to power down. If no cards are installed, go to Step 13. If cards are installed, log into the node. See the "DLP-D60 Log into CTC" task for instructions.

If the node is not connected to a working network and the current configurations are no longer required, continue with the next step.

Note: Current configurations will be saved if Steps 4 through 11 are skipped.

In node view, click the Circuits tab and verify that no circuits appear, then proceed to Step 5. If circuits appear, complete NTP-D287 Modify and Delete Circuits to delete all of the circuits that originate or terminate in the node. Repeat until no circuits appear.
